This magnificent property is set on a 4.25 flat park-like acres with tree lined driveway and deepwater riverfront. The home offers 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, together with polished timber floors, open plan living, high ceilings, stacks of covered verandahs, in-ground pool, palpable privacy and rare river views. There’s a 4 car garage with separate studio upstairs, a covered BBQ area at the rivers edge and an abundance of well established lawn, gardens and trees. Yes it truly is a riverfront retreat and could soon be yours.
When you arrive at this property, you will enter through the classic post and rail timber fence and along the gravel drive lined with liquid Ambers that immediately set a special ambience for this rare escape from the rest of the world. You will feel like you’re driving through parklands as you discover the circular driveway and the private paradise provided by this property.
Most friends and family come in through the back door as that way, they enjoy a look over the in ground salt water pool to the deepwater Kalang river just beyond where they know they can get fresh fish and mud crabs, free of charge. The covered back verandah overlooks the same view and leads to the open plan living/ kitchen/ dining area which offers a luxurious 170 sqm of space and serenity with polished timber floors and high ceilings.
The kitchen here is an absolute delight for families and ‘foodies’ with a fantastic 6 burner gas cooktop, extra large electric oven, plenty of cupboard space, drawer and bench space, double sink, dishwasher and delightful river and garden views. It can easily handle more than one cook in the kitchen and often has.
The open plan living/ formal dining area (13 x 8m) also enjoys polished timber floors and central skylight with no less than 5 door options onto the covered verandahs. The slow combustion log burner is great in winter and in summer the sea breeze, insulated ceilings and ceiling fans are all you need to keep it lovely and cool.
The main bedroom (5 x 3.5m) is carpeted with walk in wardrobe, ensuite bathroom, direct access to the covered verandah and lovely river views. It is located at one end of the house for maximum privacy, while the other bedrooms are located at the other end of the house.
All the other bedrooms are carpeted with built in wardrobes and they all enjoy direct access to the covered verandahs, while bedroom 2 also enjoys river views. The main bathroom is central to these 3 bedrooms and is in fact a 3 way bathroom offering separate shower, spa bath, separate dual flush toilet and generous vanity.
You cant help but love the feel of this house, it is perfect for a resident family as well as visitors and from every room in the house your outlook is to the park-like grounds which make you feel like you’re in a world of your very own. To top off the lovely garden views, from many rooms you will also enjoy river views, and will no doubt find yourself wondering what the rest of the world is doing.
The 4 car garage is of course, very practical and very useful, no matter how many cars you have and above the garage sits the separate studio space with open plan, kitchenette, verandah and again, magnificent river views. The perfect place to escape, or for guests to stay and enjoy their own space and their own magnificent views.
We have mentioned the gardens and now let us tell you that you will find well established and productive macadamia, mango, lime, orange and mulberry trees along with maple, Japanese Elm, White Cedar, Hoop Pines, Norfolk Island Pines, palms, bromeliads, native orchards, ferns, cycads and herb garden.
There is so much more to say about this property but you’ll have to discover it for yourself in its idyllic location just 20 minutes drive (27km) from Coffs Harbour, 10 minutes from the beach (7km), 5 minutes from Urunga (4km) and 15 minutes (16km) from Bellingen.
